Despite Declaration Of Strike, Abuja Doctors Attend To Patients

The NARD had declared the strike following government’s failure to meet its demands.

But when we visited the Kubwa General Hospital on Wednesday by 12 noon, doctors were seen attending to patients.

Our correspondent observed that normal consultations and treatment were ongoing at the general hospital while patients in their numbers were seen seated in the waiting section to be attended to by the doctors.

The NARD president,  Dr Orji Emeka Innocent, Tuesday evening said the strike will commence today(Wednesday ) following a decision reached at the National Executive Council (NEC) meeting in Lagos.

Contained in the statement made available on Tuesday evening, the  resident doctors also listed demands to include the immediate payment of the 2023 MRTF, the immediate release of the circular on one-for-one replacement and the payment of skipping arrears among others.
